Chapter 30: Training (1)

It was just before dawn when Elior finished cleansing his body with the potion. He stood up from the bathtub, which now held awful, reeking water. His body also reeked of the awful reek—from the impurities that he cleaned. He needed a good bath now, but before that, he needed to dump. Not all impurities had found the path through his skin. Those needed to be cleansed manually. Yes, through dumping.

It did not take him to finish that as well, and the awful reek was there too. Elior squinted his nose all the time as he flushed the toilet and cleaned the bathtub. His entire body was oily with the impurities, though it was not like the wuxia master.

Cleaning all that, Elior opened the status window while taking in a cold shower.

There was some improvement in the body and mana, but the most significant improvement was that his [Mana Application] had risen to level 9. In just one night it had risen three levels. Well, it was not unconvincing. The first ten levels were the basic. A clear circulation path and some mastery was enough to level up into level 9

Now he only need to rise it once more to reach the intermediate level where he could use his attribute a little more freely, though he felt a wall between that. He needed to train a little more to break the wall before he could start cultivate the [Abstraction of Void].

Elior let the cold water clear his thoughts. After returning to his room, he found the clock was striking at four o'clock. The sun had not risen yet—a good time to do morning workout, though there were hours before it would be morning.

Elior slid a vest over his upper body and a track-suit and then put on his sneakers. It was his old shoe, though it was of fair quality now. He could tell it would not even survive a week now. He could only blame himself now to not have the foresight to buy some clothing and shoe from the guardian store after the trial. He could have got the things cheaper than here on earth.

There were guardian stores on earth too, but they were not run by the pixie. The price here was about twenty to fifty percent higher than the trial store. Not just because of human greed, but the stuff at the trial store was cheaper.

And last, Elior put two earbuds in his ears and left the room. The playlist was not foreign to him. Most of them were the pop songs he liked, though he did not know if he still like it or not. Elior did not bother with it now, let it sang in his ear as he walked down the hallway.

After walking for a while, he came back again and stopped before the quarter of Shin. He knocked on the door loudly, which may not only disturb Shin's sleep but everyone else's too.

And few of them should have woken up before Shin could open the door. Only after two minutes of constant knocking did the wannabe delinquent, open the door.

"What's the matter at this time of the night?" the poor fellow who was interpreted from his sleep asked.

"Change the pajamas now, we are going for a walk." Elior said, pausing the music in his ear.

"Now at night?" Shin was flabbergasted. It was not his fault. Anyone would be startled if they heard someone going to walk in this hour.

Elior nodded. "Don't make excuses now. If you sleep again, you might get a penalty again."

Shin did not seem to be fearful of the penalty. Well of course, he had read the rule book yesterday where it was written that students have to rise before six apart from the weekends.

"Brother Elior, do I have to?" Shin asked pitifully.

Elior only smiled. "Prepare quickly. You are not only delaying yourself but me too."

"Brother Elior, at least have some pity for this poor soul."

"Get ready quickly," Elior said. "Or else I won't let you sleep in peace."

In the end, Elior had to threaten Shin before he joined in the walk. Shin complained the entire way to the ground. But seeing his words were not reaching Elior, who was listening to music the entire time, he finally rested his swearing.

The ground was quite big; it was at least half mile in square metre with green grass trimmed well. Surrounding the field was the track where they would be running now. There was no soul present here now apart from the two of them. Even they could not see things clearly now.

"Let's stretch a little before starting running." Elior proposed.

"Do I have any say in this?" Shin asked, gritting his teeth.

Elior smiled. "You understood it quite quickly," he said.

Shin was too pessimistic and half-hearted about the workout, so Elior pondered for a moment to think about how to motivate him. Even if Shin was trying to be a delinquent to piss off his parents for attention, in the end, this guy was quite the pervert type. Even in his half-dead state, this guy would start running if he heard about girls.

"You know Shin, this is the ground where everyone works out at dawn." Elior said, coming with something. "All the students, irrespective of their class."

"So?"

"So," Elior smiled. "All the students included the girls, too. Do you not want to see girls working out here?"

Shin's eyes brightened in the darkness. "Are you telling the truth?"

"Do I ever lie to you?"

"You should have said that to me earlier." Shin complained, but he started stretching.

With the thought of impressing girls, Shin started working out with Elior. They started running just after the stretching. None of the two had a good constitution, barely better than the average. One lap on the track was as long as four miles.

Elior motivated Shin with all sorts of words such as "If you at least complete five laps on the tracks, you might be able to leave an impression on the girls."

Shin was powered up by the words. The two of them started running as the sun peeked from the east.

One by one a few people started to appear on the field and by the time the girls appeared Shin was half dead on the ground and he was not the only one. Elior was in similar condition, only a little better. He did not think twenty miles would be this difficult for him.

Girls laughed at the two of them when they passed by them. Some of them were of the same year, while most of them were upperclassmen, but all of them laughed at them.

"Brother," Shin opened up his mouth in between the gasps. "You said they would be impressed by me if I completed five laps. But it seems they are just joking about me. You lied."

"I did not," Elior said, sitting up. "I said you will be able to leave an impression on the girls. I did not say good or bad."

"Brother, you are cruel." Shin cried.
